Hi,
I have below file structure for supporting multiple locales:
\MyInstaller
\en-us
Myinstaller_en.wixproj
Main_en.wxs
\ja-jp
Myinstaller_ja.wixproj
Main_ja.wxs
The only difference between Main_en.wxs and Main_ja.wxs is that the former uses
1033 as language ID and the latter uses 1041.
<?define LCID="1041"?>
<Product Id="$(var.PRODUCT_GUID)">
......
</Product>
As you can see, it is a big pain that every time when I update <Product> node
in Main_en.wxs, I need to update Main_ja.wxs correspondingly. To relieve this
pain, I tried to change the file structure into below one but did not succeed:
\MyInstaller
Commondefine.wxi
\en-us
Myinstaller_en.wixproj
Main_en.wxs
\ja-jp
Myinstaller_ja.wixproj
Main_ja.wxs
This does not work because the whole <Product> node is the same for en-us and
ja-jp. Only the macro which can be defined in wxi file is different.
I know there is a way to create multiple locales installers using only one
wixproj but it does not work here because I need to generate transform from
en-us installer to ja-jp installer to create a MUI-based installer.
How can I decouple <Product> node from the locale-specific part (e.g. LCID
define) so that changing <Product> node does not need to change both locales'
wxs files?
Appreciate your help.
Thanks
Lian
